"We had dinner at Le Gout de la Vie because it wasn’t as crowded as the other restaurants in Gordes - I just don’t know why it wasn’t! Our pizza’s were extremely delicious with a lot of cheese and a nice touch were the extra sharp knives served with them. Thanks for a perfect dinner at a reasonable price!"

"Not too crowded given that it was a weekend in the summer. It’s located just off the main road in the old city center. The place is decorated quite nicely with lots of caricature art hanging on the wall. Interior is small, but cozy and the servers were very nice. The outdoor terrace has a good amount of tables. The food was excellent. I had the tuna and bean salad and my daughter had the quiche tart. I recommend both. I would definitely eat here again."
